The rare NTSC-compatible variant of Italian distributor DomoVideo's Murder Rock. Lucio Fulci's often derided giallo/slasher answer to the Flashdance craze. This tape does indeed playback normally on my North American VCR, but presumably to cater to Italian speaking communities abroad, the language is Italian with no subtitles. Based on the memory of seeing Shriek Show's DVD years back, the presentation appears uncut, and interestingly the (roughly) 1.66:1 widescreen framing shifts from shot-to-shot.
